In this final class in the Rising Strong series inspired by Brené Brown’s inspiring guidebook, we put the process - the reckoning, the rumble, the revolution - into practice. We empower ourselves to rise to whatever challenges we have yet to face. We build strength and mobility in our shoulders and upper backs to bravely let our hearts shine. Suitable for experienced beginners wanting to deepen their practice, or intermediate yogis wanting to refine their technique.

Thank you, everyone, for your kind words and enthusiasm for this series. This has been quite the journey for me, and seeing myself on video and in photography again was a challenge, even though I knew that the whole purpose of this was to begin to embrace myself again. One thought I keep coming back to: many decades ago when I decided once and for all to quit smoking (I can't believe I ever smoked!), I wrote down all the positive reasons - the things I would gain from releasing myself from this habit. As I move through shifting my habits now, I will employ this same tactic - to LOVE myself through the process. I wish you all well in your brave journeys towards transformation too. ❤️

Thank you for your bravery and vulnerability, for creating creative sequences that gave us the feeling of rising strong, and for offering us the opportunity to grow and consider how we may limit ourselves. This has been a meaningful series for me.
